I didn't actually look at the patch, I've just seen the problem myself
- if you run testgtk and look at the toggle button test, it sure looks
to me like the prelight pops the buttons out. If I look at the code,
it looks like that's a SHADOW_IN frame getting drawn, but the result
doesn't look like it's pressed in, it looks popped out.

Perhaps that would fix it.
